There will be 85 hours of programming that will be captured by Olympic Broadcasting Services (OBS) and supplied to NBC Olympics. Coverage will include the Opening and Closing Ceremonies, men’s basketball — including the semifinals and final — gymnastics, track and field, beach volleyball, diving, boxing, and fencing, as well as highlight packages of those sports.

For those hoping to watch Olympic Games coverage in VR as it happens, unfortunately programming will be presented on delay. You can expect to start tuning in from August 6, the day after the Opening Ceremony, through August 22, the day after the Games conclude.

Only Samsung Galaxy smartphones compatible with Gear VR will be able to access the VR content section of the NBC Sports app. Samsung customers can view the VR content via TV Everywhere on the NBC Sports app after authenticating through their pay TV provider.

“Fans of the Olympics will now get to experience the world’s best athletes as they compete in some of the most popular events of Rio 2016 in a whole new way: through virtual reality,” said Marc Mathieu, Chief Marketing Officer at Samsung Electronics America. “We are thrilled to work with NBC and OBS on this first-of-its-kind endeavor, connecting fans right to the action in Rio, powered by 360-degree storytelling, virtual reality and our Galaxy phones.”

The Opening Ceremony of the 2016 Rio Olympics is Friday, August 5, on NBC.
